LIMITED QUANTITIES!
Just in case anyone still looking for a Leather Battery Back Cover. I found this guy selling what looks like factory seconds, they all have a dent as pictured, for $22. Does not have NFC sticker, perfect for those that want to add a NeWisdom Qi/NFC sticker instead. http://www.ebay.com/itm/A-Quality-L...O-NFC-Brown-/151768149833?hash=item2356162f49
$26 with NFC chip, also dented. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Lea...-W-NFC-Chip-for-LG-G4-H815-Brown/301710301243
doesn't even have the G4 logo

I just got the extended battery, the OEM HTC battery with cover, the 1880 version. Two days heavy use, just have to charge now. Big difference. But I needed a case for it. I saw some of the suggestion, including the HTC case that was at Best Buy, It was just a little big. I had read somewhere that possibly a case that was made for the Blackberry Curve would work. I headed over to Circuit City, the guy from the Verizon store was very helpful, even though I was buying for my Sprint Touch. He let me try out a few cases until I found the perfect one, with a perfect fit. I was like it was made for the Touch. Here it is. I included a picture of the case. Go try it out for yourself at any Verizon or Circuit City Store. The best thing is that it doesn't say anything on it, no Blackberry markings or anything with Verizon on it. It looks like a generic case.
Leather Side Pouch
Your Price $19.99 The handcrafted pouch of top grain leather and a protective leather flap with magnetic closure secures your device into the pouch.
(Part #RIM8330CAS)
I also have a Sprint Vogue with the Mogen Power 2400 mAh battery with a humpless back cover. I came across your post and took your advice and headed to the nearest Verizon store and found a similar leather case for the Blackberry Curve although it is the vertical hanging version and I love it. Paid 24.95 US.
Thanks for the tip.

Review:
Price: £1.89 + £ree p&p
(not the cheapest case i've ever bought: £0.10 for Crystal N95 Case + Screen Protector, but hey what can you do )
The case took about 10 days to be delivered.
The packaging was alright not a cardboard box but the contents were not affected in anyway and for free delivery what can you expect
I was happy that they sent 2 screen protectors, as can be seen in the pics they are not the same. One of which protects some protection to the bottom of the phone beside the keys. One of which does not. I have not yet attached the screen protectors as I do not see as being currently necessary and I'm rubbish at applying screen protectors ( Get bubbles everywhere )
The case itself has a nice orange stitching and a soft velvety interior finish. The velvet itself can be seen to be a dust magnet. I have tested out the compass and the magnetic clasp does not affect it.
Update 24/06/10:
As highlighted by JonPickles below the plastic case securing the phone to the case is tight. I am slightly worried whether repeated removal and installation of the phone will cause damage to the paint of the casing. Also if the phone is not taken out properly the tight fitting can cause the battery cover to come of. As of now I have not found a good way to remove the phone. I am wondering it repeated removal will losen the fitting making it easier to remove. If anyone else has this case or any other tight fitting cases please share any tips on how best to remove it.

I didn't like the leather insert into which the phone goes. But everyone has their own tastes.
Great case for that price, it's really cheap and do the job perfectly, thanks for this share

The same story - slightly different characters:
Beware of snap-on hard cases! I mean you have to be very careful and do not go for the cheapest ones. My sad experience with one of them, very similar to this one brought me to this rather obvious conclusion. What happened is that in 3 weeks gray paint/covering of my HD2 was damaged wherever it touched the sturdily snapping hard case - on the corners battery cover (where the gray plastic body of HD2 slightly is raised comparing to lower battery cover) - I will post photos of it.
Then I ordered a leather pull-case, and i am happy with it. Here is my positive review for it
Is there a case that fits with the inductive battery cover? I have the case/holster that has the built in kick stand (not the body glove one, but the one that will fit the extended battery as well) that is at Verizon stores. I had a semi rigid gel case but it wont fit the inductive charging cover. I really liked the look and feel of the case, plus I like how it protected the ends of the phone unlike the hard case that I have now.
anyone??? help!!
nothing yet????
nothing at this moment hopefully soon. Im looking for a case for the extended battery besides the ugly shell case and holster combo im straight.
Yes
I saw one at Best Buy yesterday. Black in color, under 20$. For standard battery. Can't remember the brand.
Nevermind. It was not for the inductive cover.

but will it fit with the inductive charging cover? Withe the charging cover the phone is a different shape, here in-lies the problem.
How big a difference is there between standard cover and inductive charging cover?
The back is flat, there is no more camera hump.
I have the ballistic nylon 64 GB turbo and need the REAL metallic and kevlar battery cover for my car mount.
I ordered one from eBay but it's a knot know off in cheap plastic not the real deal.
Any suggestions?

Kevlar is basically plastic and there is no metal in the OEM backing.
That said, its just a coating on a plastic cover. The cover is not made out of kevlar.

Well here are the major differences between the one I picked up on eBay and the OEM cover on my friends Turbo.
1) The colors are rather different. Mine is almost fire engine red.
2) His backing is tacky, mine is very slippery.
3) His back feels "solidly built", mine indents anywhere you touch in on the back.
4) Most importantly, his Turbo adheres rather tightly to his magnetic car mount, mine .... let's just say the ballistic nylon held better.
I am going to try one more from eBay as another add States "metalized backing". It's probably the same junk, but I'll just file a claim if it's not the OEM part (or exactly like the OEM).

Contact zathus. He seems to have found a decent quality back.
This is my review of this case:
http://www.amazon.com/Artech-21-Pre...pebp=1434509354305&perid=0DNW5VXVBZBQGB76YN49
Build:
This case has a build quality when it comes to leather that surpasses most of the other $10 "Leather" cases you find, this is like buying a Leather Couch from a leather only store vs buying a leather couch from your big box store. Alot of leather now days is just leather with plastic backing. This is 100% Leather and can tell by the way it smells, and if water gets on its the spot gets a little darker but than goes away.
Design:
My only design flaw I could find with this case is that it doesn't hold a full size bill, and no front speaker cutout. I love that it has a thumb hole for your DL our ID, plus I have found since the G4 is curved you can really throw 2 cards in every slot and it still sits flat. This was my biggest issue with my Note 4 when I tried a wallet case it could never really sit flat, with the LG G4 most of your cards just sit in the contour of the screen. It also makes texting on a desk easy if you flip the back over, no more rocky phone.
Protection:
All in all I haven thrown my phone with this case but I do notice with the two magnet clasps it stays shut a lot better than most wallet cases I have used in the past. I would say it should protect your phone pretty decent unless you run over it with a car.
All in all I would give it a 9.5/10 with half a star missing for the no front speaker cutout.
thanks , did you leave us amazon review yet ? and any photo to amazon ?
